Projects...

i have sooooo many projects i need to get done in
my house its unreal actually!  our master bath has been "under construction"
for nearly 3 years now!  lack of money there for a while and
the time to get it done (since we are doing it ourselves).

we have everything we need...just time to call in the plumber :)

i am going for a cottage theme...i love vintage, cottage style...it's me thru and thru!!
the wall color will be an olive green from chair rail up...
and chair rail and down will be a antique cream painted bead board!!
the shower will be all tile...floor to ceiling.  we have gutted the whole bathrrom
and made our single standup shower a double standup shower


the vanity is custom made by Chris Homebuilders (looks similar to this)
the whole vanity is bead board which is so pretty and will def get a
distressed look when i'm done with it


i picked a bowl sink...i love they way they stand out and make a statement
in a bathroom!  i picked this green one to go along with the paint...green is my fav color!


hubby has built me some built-in shelves in a false wall he built!  he
says it will hold all my "junk"!  no woman has junk in the bathroom...
they are all nessecities!!


this is the MAJOR project we need to get done!!  the next and may come before this
one project will be my dinning room banquette!! 


we dont have a "defined" dinning room and our table is kinda in the way when you walk intomy side door, which is the door everyone comes in!  so i thought that a banquette would give us more seating and move everything to the corner and out of the walk way path!

i have the stuff to do it, just need to find the time and get on it!!


Happy Wednesday all....

Happy Friday...

TGIF...i have been waiting on this day all week :)
so sad how sometimes we wish our weeks away but then there are times
that we say "man i wish i could go back and change that day!"

thats just it...we cant change anything in our past, but we can always correct
what we did for future reference!!  i've been there many times :)


i know a lot of people who do the "what am i thankful for in November"...
im always thankful for me being able to give everything up
and putting it into Gods hands!  i couldnt do it without him!  i'm thankful for a
wonderful husband who supports me no matter what and who never gave up on me
when i wasnt making the best decisions!  AND most importantly i'm thankful for my
3 beautiful girls that GOD blessed me with! 
they keep me grounded spiritually and mentally!!  parenthood can be challenging
but all in all....its WONDERFUL!!

i am getting sooooo stoked about the release of Breaking Dawn Part 1!  i am a HUGE
"Twi-hard" Twilight fan!!  (my hubby says i'm obsessed)  i've read
all the books 2x's, i have the 2nd and 3rd movies...currently searching
amazon for the 1st at a good price!!  i just love the "love" story of it!! i know most people
say "its just a sappy love story"...well it's not to me :)

every body wants to experience that kind of love, that kind of bond in a relationship!!
i know it's important to me and in my marriage that we are connected on
every level possible and share everything!  we are best friends...soul mates!!
so here's to the new release of Breaking Dawn Part 1...and yes i already bought my tickets :)

Hope everyone has a blessed and fabulous weekend!!
